I'm an Emmy-winning filmmaker, photographer, and writer based in Northern California. I graduated from Temple University with a dual degree in Media Studies & Production and Spanish as well as a certificate in English Writing. I've done work all over the globe, from a piece on hip-hop artists in Johannesburg, South Africa to a short about an immigrant advocacy group in Oviedo, Spain. Currently, I'm producing and directing a feature-length documentary about the metalcore music scene in Lancaster County, PA called Barn Burner. By creating other media in addition to video, like writing and photography, I've learned not just how to operate a camera but how to understand and tell a story.

Tyler thought outside the box, elevated the material, and followed through on what we were looking for in a fashion that went above and beyond. I highly recommend him, and will hire him again.

Tyler pitched us this story and we immediately knew it would play amazingly well. After watching a first cut of the video he shot, we're blown away. Amazing coverage and subject.
